Man they really need to get God of War a legit opponent before too long. Nothing against Ishida, because I like him, but GGG is going to stop developing if they keep giving him soft touch after soft touch.

quality over quantity wouldn't you say? weren't you saying donaire shouldn't be praised for fighting 4 times last year if it was against guys like vazquez and arce? not sure if it was you...either way, i'm not disappointed in hearing this. i would have preferred a legit MW like most in this thread are saying, but since it's a stay busy fight that won't be eating up a showtime/hbo date, i'm cool with it. hopefully we can see a top 10 MW against golovkin in his next hbo date.

My God! He fighting is all that matters right now. Ishida is a good stay busy fight. Its better than training day after day for free. Y'all are too testy especially considering how short of a break that is.

He has a june date with HBO so its either fight somebody in a stay busy fight or sit and wait 6 months for June. He cant get a top 10 opponent to fight him on HBO, so he isnt getting one in a stay busy fight without HBO or showtime

If he fights a tomato can on his next HBO date, THEN let the criticism begin.
But there's no need to criticize a stay busy fight that's not even televised when the guy says he's fighting 5 times this year.

Ishida getting more paydays off his upset of the year against Kirkland. God damn that was crazy when it happened. Maybe Golovkin can be the first to stop him.
